Raiders sign Marcus Peters to reported 1-year deal

The Las Vegas Raiders announced Monday that they signed former All-Pro corner Marcus Peters.

Peters agreed to a one-year contract worth $3 million plus another $2 million in incentives, a source told Pro Football Network's Adam Caplan.

He recorded one interception, six passes defended, and two forced fumbles in 13 games with the Baltimore Ravens last season. Pro Football Focus graded him at 67.7.

Peters was named a first-team All-Pro in 2016 while with the Kansas City Chiefs and again in 2019 after splitting the campaign between the Los Angeles Rams and Ravens. Peters burst onto the scene with the Chiefs in 2015, winning Defensive Rookie of the Year and earning a second-team All-Pro nod while leading the league with eight interceptions.

The 30-year-old isn't the player he once was, but he'll add experience and pedigree to a secondary that was set to start Duke Shelley and David Long at boundary corner and Nate Hobbs at nickel. Peters, who stands at 6-feet and 197 pounds, will likely start in one of the boundary spots.
